*A Dallas area promoter is NOT happy with R. Kelly.
It seems the promoter is pissed at Kelly for pulling out of an upcoming show, and stiffing the guy on a nice size deposit. That means R. Kelly is now the recipient of big ol’ lawsuit.
According to TMZ, Darryl Austin says he hand delivered a $100k deposit to Kelly’s team in January for him to headline an April concert in Dallas.
According to the docs … when February rolled around R. Kelly’s rep played dumb and claimed to know nothing about the show.
Austin says the real insult came when the self-proclaimed Pied Piper of R&B returned the deposit … $30,000 SHORT!!
Austin wants the court to either force Kelly to do the show … or pay back the dough.
